When Dashti, a maid, and Lady Saren, her mistress, are shut in a tower for seven years for Saren's refusal to marry a man she despises, the two prepare for a very long and dark imprisonment.

As food runs low and the days go from broiling hot to freezing cold, it is all Dashti can do to keep them fed and comfortable. But the arrival outside the tower of Saren's two suitors—one welcome, and the other decidedly less so—brings both hope and great danger, and Dashti must make the desperate choices of a girl whose life is worth more than she knows.

What an amazing story !!! I came across this book as a recommendation on GoodReads and boy I'm relying on the recommendations seen there from now on... This is a retelling of one of the Grimm Brothers tales and at first it doesn't seem like much but by the time you reach like 30% of the story it's just impossible to put the book down. Absolutely love it !!
